The boardwalk, Friday evening

Blair didn't have ice to work with this time, but she tried to do what she could with the location she had. Luckily the beach was pretty. Besides, too much gold in the decorations tended to cross the line into tacky.

So she kept the decorations to twinkling gold lights and candles. Most of the linens were a crisp white, with golden napkins and table runners to provide pops of color.

The bulk of the gold went into the food. There were brandied apricots, lemon and chocolate cheesecakes, mango sorbets, small cups of saffron vanilla pudding, miniature stuffed yellow peppers, and any number of foods that followed the theme, along with the pies that Ned had made.

Drinks were mixed, but naturally included Goldschläger, as well as coffee and cocoa decorated with tiny gold letters which said things like "Fandom" or "Goodbye Summer."

Blair had staked out a prime table with a view of the water. She sipped at a passionfruit martini, listened to the music coming out of the various speakers she'd had set up, and looked forward to a night of judging watching the crowd.

She was also going to make sure nobody served those skunks. Clearly they didn't know how to hold their liquor.

"Oh." He felt the red spread across his cheeks and neck at her having to prompt him. "You look very nice tonight."

"Thank you. Kiss?" she asked, not feeling like going onto her toes.

Because she'd probably fall over.

"Okay," he said and leaned down far enough to kiss her lightly on the nose.

"That's my nose," she pointed out helpfully, scrunching it up.

"It's still a kiss," he said and smiled at her.

"That's cheating," she said solemnly.

"...why?" Ned asked, genuinely confused.

"I dunno." She shrugged, wobbling again. "Ned? Ned. I have t'tell you something."

"Okay," he said, tightening the hold on her hand to keep her upright again.

"I think...I'm a little drunked," she said very seriously.

"Oh. Uh oh." Ned looked around. "Um, let's go back to the dorms, okay?"

"We don't gotta!" she assured him. "Only a little bitty bit."

She held her fingers veeeeery close together. "Little!"

"That's enough," he said and looked around. "Come on. It's better if we go know."

"Because you should lie down," he said. "So you don't fall down."

"I'm not sleepy!" she assured him.

"You will be," Ned said. He'd read about intoxication. Sleepiness was always involved.

"Will not!"

She was already kind of sleepy.

"Please?" He tried to look as convincing as he could. "It'll be for me."

"...okay," she finally said, sighing a little. "But juuuust for you!"

"Thank you," he said, forgetting completely about the pies and setting off for the dorms with her hand in his.
